Jose Reyes finally met up with his former teammates on Thursday. But after just one at-bat — the rains came in the third inning — Jose was done for the day, despite the fact that the game resumed after a delay of just under an hour.

Reyes grounded back to R.A. Dickey leading off the bottom of the 1st inning in his only plate appearance, and said afterward that it wasn’t a big deal facing the Mets down here.

Dickey’s day was cut short by the rain as well, but he retired all 6 batters he faced, striking out one with a dancing knuckleball. He finished his day by throwing another 5 innings in the bullpen, good for 75 pitches. Dickey was asked whether it was strange facing Reyes as the first batter.

Manny Acosta and Bobby Parnell continued to pitch well out of the Mets bullpen. Each gave up a hit, Acosta striking out 3 in two innings, Parnell with 2 strikeouts in one inning. The Mets fell to 3-8 though with the loss to Miami.

Jason Bay continued his resurgence, singling and doubling against Marlin ace Josh Johnson in two at-bats. Bay, who started 1-11, lifted his average to .267.
